Booking.com hosts: take control of energy costs in your holiday rentals
On Booking.com, guests expect charges to be included. The result: heating on full blast, AC running non-stop, and your electricity bill skyrocketing.
Powtiva includes an energy quota in every booking. Beyond that, the guest pays for their overconsumption via a dedicated page.
Why Booking.com is expensive in energy costs
Booking.com specifics amplify the energy problem
International clientele
Booking.com guests come from all over the world with very different consumption habits. A Nordic guest may leave windows open in winter, a Southern guest may run the AC continuously.
Charges always included
On Booking.com, the norm is to offer an all-inclusive price. It's impossible to charge energy separately without losing competitiveness against other listings.
Longer stays, higher bills
Booking.com often generates stays of 5 to 14 nights. The longer the stay, the more overconsumption accumulates. A single guest can cost over 100€ in electricity.
How Powtiva protects your margins on Booking.com

Transparent energy quota
Include a reasonable energy budget in your price. The guest consumes normally without noticing anything.
Overconsumption billed automatically
If the guest exceeds the quota, they top up via QR code or link. Card payment in 30 seconds.
Smart load shedding
Credit at zero? Comfort circuits are cut off (heating, AC, water heater). Lighting and outlets always remain active.
Multi-property monitoring
Manage all your Booking.com properties from a single dashboard. Real-time WhatsApp alerts, consumption history per booking.
